Hello yet again Spice Heads! It's time for another Steam Summer Sale Report! Today marks it a week since i've been doing this, and it's been fun listing sales and posting tips for everyone to make the best of their sale. Lets get on with it already!

Tips & Tricks

Tip #9: Explore the store. A game you might have never heard of might be on sale 90% off. You never know what hidden gems you might find!

Tips #10: Ask friend and community members for recommendations. Remember that many others want to make the summer sale as good an experience as possible!

I'm running out of tips...so i might replace this section with something else for the final week of the sale and keep doing mini reviews. We'll see what happens.

Give Away info

As I mentioned in the last summer sale report, i'll probably do another giveaway during the last days of the sale. are there any games under $10 that the community would want me to giveaway? Let me know.

Closing

Well the sale's half over folks. Hope everyone's finding games they like! I've personally been enjoying Xcom 2 more then I probably should. (26 hours already) Anyway, the next sale report will most likely be a rather spooky one. Stay tuned for more!

Nice! Going to pick up South Park. $7.50 is a hell of a deal for that. If you're on the fence about Fallout 4, let me just say.. it's my favorite current game that I've played in the last 3-4 years. I have over 1600 hours /played. None of that was AFK. With all the mods, expansions, and upcoming player made expansions, for $15 it's a no brainer.

I picked up Salt and Sanctuary a couple days ago and I'm both pleased and irritated I'm struggling on the first damn boss. My bank account isn't ready for the scary stuff to go on sale yet, buy my body is.

That is a great game. Many hours with it and still not finished but I love the souls-y nature of it. It has a lot of depth.

It does have a surprising amount of depth, even in the little bit I've gotten though. That damn Sodden Knight can die in a fire though, I nearly had him beat last night before I pounded the shift key to many times and the sticky keys dialog box minimized the game for me with predictable results. Its been a while since I had to rage quit a game.

Haha, that's rough! You'll get there though, it's like any Souls games, once you get a few levels in and some pattern recognition you'll be roflstomping in no time. I did find it to be far more defensive and deliberate than Bloodborne (my favourite Miyazaki game) though so it's a bit detrimental to push the attack so it took a tiny bit of learning to get over that desire for sure, at least for me.

Lol yea that's my problem exactly...I want to bash him with my sword until he submits but so far that has not been a winning strategy. Now that sticky keys is off and I can dive in an appropriately panicked fashion he should taste sweet justice tonight. That dude owes me like 3000 salt.
